The ancient world revered Sappho's poetry. Today, her work survives only in fragments. Canada's poet laureate, Bliss Carman loved those fragments. In the late Victorian Era, Carman cemented together Sappho's verses with his own poetry. The result is a sensual, musical, erotic and ravishing literary mosaic.
